The National Hockey League announced Tuesday the schedule for exhibition games and for the return-to-play postseason qualifying round, both of which will involve the Arizona Coyotes.

After arriving in the hub city of Edmonton on July 26, Arizona will play an exhibition game against the Vegas Golden Knights on July 30 at 7 p.m. July 30 will be the third of three days of exhibition games across the league, and the Coyotes’ game will be very last one in the league to be played. The Coyotes’ opponent in the qualifying round, the Nashville Predators, play their exhibition game on July 30 as well.

Additionally, the schedule for the qualifying round has been announced. The games between Arizona and Nashville are as follows:

Game 1: Aug. 2 at 11 a.m. MST
Game 2: Aug. 4 at 11:30 a.m. MST
Game 3: Aug. 5 at 11:30 a.m. MST

The start times for games 4 and 5, if necessary, are to be determined.

The league said broadcast information for these games will be released “in the coming days.”

Arizona split its two-game season series against Nashville during the regular season with a 5-2 win and a 3-2 loss.
